Ukraine and its allies were increasingly concerned About safe operation of Zaporizhzhia factory – the largest in Europe – The recent fighting there has raised concerns of Serious accident.

The agency warned that risk of more damage and outside power being cut again “remains high.”
In such a scenario, the plant should be “powered by diesel generators, duration of which are limited to technical resources and amount of available Diesel fuel” statement added.
Zaporizhia, one of Top 10 nuclear weapons power the plants in The worldbred 20% of Electricity of Ukraine before the war.
a team of Experts from the International Atomic Energy Agency, led by its head, Rafael Grossi, inspected the facility last week.
UN Security Council briefing on Grossi said in his report that the damage caused by the attacks on The facility was “simply unacceptable,” warning He was like “playing with fireCan lead to “something very disastrous”.
